About the Producer

Born in Valtellina, Italy, Camillo Magoni moved to Baja California in 1965, after studying viticulture and enology in Alba. He worked for almost fifty years at L.A. Cetto winery, and actively participated to the transformation of Baja California’s wine industry. Starting in the 1960s, he bought vineyards and experimented with many varieties, growing over a hundred of them: Chardonnay, Fiano, Viognier, Arneis, Moschofilero, Assyrtiko, Montepulciano, Aglianico, Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, many of them field blends. He sold his grapes to established wineries, and helped them move away from high alcohol reds while developing white wines. In 2012, faced with a surplus of grapes, he decided to start making his own wine. He loves to try new things, and makes many unique cuvées and trial batches. He introduced his Casa Magoni wines in 2016, and is recognized as one of the iconic personality of Baja California. Total production is around 21,000 cases.
